Limerick Race 3

525 Yds (A4)

Prize Money: $469

ABIGAILS FIRE (6) looks an each-way chance. AQUA BOLT (1) pinged the lids and led throughout to score last start (29.42) at this track in A6 over 480m. Hard to fault his form and he makes plenty of appeal. BALLYGIBBA DOVE (2) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 3.5 lengths into third (29.76) at this track in an A4 over 480m. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Leading player again. BANKER ALICE (5) should be thereabouts.
